PageEPMC SERVICES FOR REWARI – KANPUR PIPELINE PROJECTBASIS OF DESIGN (PIPELINE)1. INTRODUCTIONThis document presents the Pipeline Design Basis for the EPMC phase of the Rewari – KanpurPipeline Project (RKPL). The purpose of the BoD is to clearly define the Customer’s criteria to beused as part of the engineering design. It is to be considered as an approved source of input data forthe engineering team.The major systems <strong>com</strong>prising this project are modifications/ tie-ins at existing Bahadurgarh station,Receipt/Dispatch station with pumping facilities at Rewari, Intermediate Pigging/Pumping (Future)Station at Bharatpur, Intermediate Receipt station at Mathura, Intermediate Pigging / Pumping(Future) Station at Saiyyadpur Pran, receipt station at Kanpur, multi-product pipeline between thedispatch station and each existing terminal to receipt station.The products shall be made available to this pipeline either from existing MDPL operating fromMundra end and/or from Guru Gobind Singh Refinery (GGSR) at Raman Mandi, Punjab. The lengthof Rewari-Kanpur pipeline is approximately 441 km.The current revision addresses the initial basic engineering requirements for the process design,pipeline hydraulic and surge analysis, pipeline design, pipeline transfer pump system (with associatedelectrical and instrumentation) and the control valves to underline issue of long lead MRs for pipelinematerial, product transfer pumping system and major pressure control valve. The subsequentrevisions shall cover remaining basic, detail design, procurement and follow-on engineering activitiessupporting procurement expediting & construction management phases.The purpose of this document is to provide a reference to define the scope of the design andrequirements and all major design parameters along with a list of codes and standards that shall befollowed.Various other documents can be read in conjunction with the Basis of Design for a furtherunderstanding and reference. The initial input data is <strong>com</strong>piled from the Detailed Feasibility ReportRef. Doc. No. 0031-00-RPT-9001 Rev.1 (furnished by HPCL). The findings of the these reports areverified with results of above listed activities during basic engineering phase with Hold indicated forpending verification which will be cleared as each activities are <strong>com</strong>pleted.Over and above the Detailed Feasibility Report, for RKPL, facilities between Rewari and Kanpur shallbe designed as a <strong>com</strong>mon carrier in line with PNGRB notification.n:\513-mh-2145-rkpl\11 engineering\11.8 pipelines\02 bod\working\mh2145-c000-pl-bod-0001_rev 0 .doc EV435-JH0902-00-GEN-BOD-0001 Rev 06 of 34
